Stephen Keane

Stephen Keane (1848-) was the owner of Keane's Saloon in Valentine, Nebraska during the late 19th century. His saloon was once packed every night when it was the only one in town, but the larger Smithfield's Saloon later opened down the street and became more popular during the 1890s. Keane became acquainted with the drunken gunslinger Jim Boy Calloway, the author Theodore Levin, and the outlaw Arthur Morgan, among other notable people of the last years of the Wild West. He was a Republican Party voter.
